Reggie Miller Didn't Hesitate Calling Out Knicks Fans After Pacers' Win originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
One of the underlying storylines in the Eastern Conference finals centered on Indiana Pacers legend Reggie Miller providing commentary for the series for TNT.
This only meant that Miller had the opportunity to rekindle some old flames stemming from his intense rivalry against the New York Knicks during his playing days. There was no love lost between Miller and Knicks fans either, with the Hall of Famer himself even encouraging the savagery from New York supporters.
Miller, however, had a gracious message for the Knicks after the Pacers secured a series-clinching 125-108 victory in Game 6 on Saturday night. After Indiana ended New York's season in heartbreaking fashion, the three-time All-NBA shooting guard made his opinion of the Knicks crystal clear.
"Dressed in all black like the OMEN!! Congratulations to my beloved @pacers for their 2nd trip to the @nba Finals," Miller wrote in an Instagram post. "I also want to congratulate the @nyknicks for another hard fought series, have ZERO ill will towards that’s organization."

Miller, though, could not help but fire a savage shot at Knicks fans to rub salt in their fresh wound.
"BUUUTTTTT, to all the fake (expletive) NY fans and celebrities not named @officialspikelee and @tracymorgan, enjoy your nice Summer Cancun vacation .. #CurseOfCharlesOakleyLives #KnicksIn13 #WillieWonkaDuneDylan" he continued.

To be fair, Miller didn't generalize with his statement here. He specifically singled out the "fake" Knicks fans. Miller also aimed his shot at certain "celebrities," which appears to be a jab at Hollywood actor Timothee Chalamet.
In one of his hashtags, Miller listed some of Chalamet's most popular films, namely, "Wonka," "Dune" and "A Complete Unknown," where the actor played Bob Dylan in the highly acclaimed biopic.
Chalamet was one of the Knicks' loudest and proudest supporters throughout the series, and Miller just had to take a not-so-veiled shot at the Academy Award-nominated actor after Indiana's series win.
